Pure, White and Deadly

Yudkin's detailed research was eye-opening, but I'm curious what motivated him to zero in on sugar as a major health risk. Was there a particular event or discovery that spurred this focus?

The book highlights how industry interests downplayed sugar's dangers, which made me wonder whether widespread awareness is really possible. Has anyone experienced a shift in their own eating habits because of this?

Given how much nutritional science evolves, I wonder how much of Yudkin's work remains ahead of its time versus what has been integrated into modern guidelines. Do readers think his warnings are finally gaining traction?
